A brief description of when and why the building energy consumption baseline was adopted:

The building energy consumption baseline was adopted to coincide with the Beloit College Sustainability Plan which states a baseline year of the 2013-14 academic year.

A brief description of any building temperature standards employed by the institution:

Almost all of the 90 buildings owned by the College have temperature set points regulated by our Building Automation System.During winter months, buildings are heated to 68 degrees FDuring summer months, buildings are cooled to 72 degrees F.

A brief description of any light emitting diode (LED) lighting employed by the institution:

The College is installing LEDs in dormitory buildings and academic buildings as cost-effective options, rebates, and incentives become available. Currently we've already installed LEDs in one of our art galleries, and a few dormitory buildings, and several academic buildings.
